Kathy, I have not kept track of even good high school friends over the years, but I was truly saddened to hear of Roy's passing. He was always cheerful, and seemed to me to be headed for success in computers and business. I am glad to know that you high school sweethearts were able to live your lives together. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
